The Hills are Alive!!

Sooo week one definetly sucked me in. I can't lie Spencer keeps things interesting, being that rude actually takes some thought. And Audrina shut LO down. For a moment (just a brief one) I saw a personality emerge.

Anyways, onto this week...please alert me when Doug says anything of substance. But then again LC hasn't said anything worth repeating for 4 seasons so with those similarities I see a marriage in the near future.

LO needs to go ahead and run her mouth to Audrina's face and not in the safety of the car. She also would have gotten kicked off of Shear Genius with that crazy bang she was rockin. And red lipstick is not for EVERYONE.

Anyways the set-up is getting better and better beacuse we all know that Stephanie is going to be friendless at the end of the season. All I ask is that MTV fire some of the editors. Is Whitney really still relevant? Why did I need to see her take a sip of wine. Get it together.

Stay Tuned

We ALL Love Money

VH1 has managed to achieve in one season what MTV has never been able to do in the past 10 years. They have the awesomest Survivor type- challenge show ever. I Love Money which features cast members from all the seasons of Flavor Of Love, I Love New York and Rock of Love uses the same elements as the Gauntlet and Inferno shows. However, the alliances and challenges make for the most entertaining hour of TV of this type that I have seen in a long time.

Miscasting Alert: White Boy from season 2 of I Love New York should definetly be on From Gs to Gents. He punked this ish out of his WHOLE team this week and made Mr. Boston cry. He is so much more of a G then anyone on that show.

Seriously though, the people on this show come across as some of the dumbest people to be cast on TV show in history. Yet they have made some of the most sneaky and complex alliances that this type of show has ever produced. Plus they are pretty good at playing the hell out of each other by acting weaker then they truly are to be saved from being voted off. The concept is great. Check it out Sundays Vh1 9 PM EST

Tacky, nouveau riche, antics

Let me preempt this by saying the following post will probably offend some people. I will warn you if you don't understand the French in the title you may want to skip over this because it's not for you. That being said:

The Real Housewives of Atlanta: Preview Special

I would like to take a moment to shout out my partner in crime. You know who you are :). This individual alerted me to the preview to the latest edition to the Housewives franchise based in Atlanta. Bravo snuck this in at midnight last night after a repeat of that yawnfest known as Shear Genius.

I personally get super excited when any cast of people on a show is predominately Black and its not on BET or TVOne. Sidenote: When the cast of Real World Hollywood had 4 minorities for all of 2 weeks I nearly died of happiness.

Anyways by midnight I am pretty deep into my bottle of red wine when the show begins. Within the first three lines one of the wives declares "Atlanta is NEW money". And the show goes downhill from there.

Admittedly, Bravo has cast all previous seasons with tacky, opulent, over the top, new money women who live in both California and New York and I have laughed and enjoyed every moment. However, I did not enjoy this half hour one bit.

Let's begin with the obvious..Kim Zoliciak the only White women on this season is CLEARLY being pimped. Her segment consisted of her introducing herself and her two young daughters. She mentions that her current boyfriend wants to remain off camera so she will be calling him "Big Papa" WHHHHAATTT???!!! and more importantly WHY? In her finest TV moment, Kim calls the local Cadillac dealership, demands that they have a fully loaded Escalade ready for purchase then drags her kids (from a previous realtionship) to pick it up. She writes a $65,000 check and then declares that she "doesn't know if she got a fair price or not". Turns to her girls in the backseat and states "We are lucky! Thanks Big Papa!" Thanks Kim for adding two more career gold diggers to the future of America. Moving on...

Nene Leakes. Bless her heart, I actually think she is a wonderful person with a good heart and a loving marriage. But, this chick is seriously Hood Fab or maybe she is just country? I don't know but she is all the bad qualities of Ramona and Alex from NYC. Bad hair, loud mouth, social climber and a husband who is more into looks then she is. He nicely told her to reasses the potatoes that she ordered at dinner. Nene listen to your boo..carbs def need to be eaten in moderation.

DeShawn Snow. This is where things got ugly. DeShawn states she knows she was destined for something great as she shows off her custom built mansion. She is married to the an NBA player and is a mother of 3. However, DeShawn doesn't actually do anything. I did a little research and she "runs" her husband's non-profit organization which means she damn sure doesn't do anything. DeShawn's segment consisted of her hiring her house staff, which was to include a governess, nanny, chef, estate manger, head maid, and maid staff. Which leads me to ask what is so great that YOU are doing? SMH

In summary, this show features those women and you know who they are. The ones who made it to EVERY football and basketball game in college. Even the away games. The ones who when it snowed and campus was shut down were seen sneaking away from the football dorm at odd hours. The ones who wanted to mush you or give you the stank face if you came within 10 feet of an athlete when you were clearly trying to get to the bar. They have their own TV show.

They should have never given ya'll N&**S Money!! Yep I said that.

September 16th 10PM EST Bravo

Not this again...

Ok how many people thought last season of The Hills was going to be set in Paris? I am still not over that creative commercial editing job. So I watched Season 3 with a huge chip on my shoulder and honestly nothing happened to sway my final decision which was...THE MAGIC IS OVER.

To take my rant even further, the magic was over when they gave LC a show instead of Kristin on Laguna Beach. LC is seriously the most devoid of personality person on TV. She literally goes on dates and stares at guys.

Needless to say, my boyfriend has strict instructions not to call on Mondays at 10pm. Because just like every other idiot who is left wishing for that 30 minutes of their life back at 10:30, I keep watching and they keep making seasons.

So we are now on Season 4. It's looking like LC goes on a 2nd date with someone (FINALLY), Lo has met her match (Audrina isn't trying to hear all that boo) and Spencer is STILL the biggest diva of them all. So tune in August 18th 10PM EST

Check out the trailer...

Fool Me Once...

Jo and Slade: Date my Ex, Bravo Mondays 10pm EST

Ok time to watch an uncomfortable situation unfold... one of the "housewifes" from the first season of Real Housewives of Orange County has her own show. Jo De La Rosa, the one with the HUGE canary yellow engagment ring who sat around the house bored to tears and was too young to be tied down, ultimately left her fiance Slade in the end of the second season.

Well...in a twist that only those FAB writers at Bravo could throw at us, Jo and Slade have paired up in a dating show in which Slade helps Jo find a new boyfriend.

Now in my personal opinion, Slade is a cool dude. Never one to get played (remember him coming to the neighborhood BBQ at the end of Season 2 with a NEW even HOTTER boo?) I have been asking myself for 3 weeks how is Slade going to come out on top?

Well all my questions were answered in last night's premiere episode. Jo is still head over heels in love with him and though he tries to play it cool he is totally gone over her. So that being said it is an hour of fake googly eyes and some of the best male -on -male hating since I Love New York.

Each week 4 men live in a house WITH Slade and each takes a stab at an individual date with Jo. At the end the week she kicks 3 men out of the house allowing one to stay. There are four new contestants each week until the house fills up and she is forced to chose her new boyfriend (or Slade).

This week the winner was "David" whose title throughout the show was "talent manager". As I viewed this particular date I kept thinking "Why do I know this person? And more importanly why do I feel like I don't like this person?"

THAT'S IT!!! David is David Wientraub of Sons of Hollywood! We already know how I feel about THAT show. Well clearly the only two people who watched the show were Slade and I becuase he pulled Dave aside and told him to gracefully bow out. Of course Dave gets to the elimination ceremony and tattles on Slade, thus causing Jo to keep Dave around.

Uggg....Jo I expect soo much more of you. I am warning you now he is a total DOUCHEBAG..not to mention he is short..get it together!
